The  Hall 

Home'  &  thVplacfeto  wtiich'all  hearts  turn  at  Christmas  time.  Then,  to 
be  one  of  a  family  in  a  home  is  the  universal  wish,  however  independent 
one  may  like  to  be  at  other  seasons.  And  the  stay-at-homes  are  glad 
also — glad  they  have  a  home,  glad  to  see  relatives  from  far  away,  glad  to 
welcome  homeless  friends  and  give  them  a  "real"  Christmas. 

To  show  this  joy  it  has  become  the  custom  to  decorate  our  homes  with 
bright  reds  and  greens,  with  gay  poinsettia  and  holly,  to  use  special  table 
appointments,  to  entertain  merrily.  So  this  book  begins  with  the  home 
and  suggests  first  a  hall  decoration. 

Stairway  and  Wall:  Brick  Crepe  Paper  No.  916,  topped  with  icicles 
cut  from  White  Crepe  Paper  No.  11  (see  page  13).  Candlestick  of  card- 
board, fastened  by  Gummed  Cloth  Tape  No.  3  and  Wire  Shank  Fasteners 
No.  11,  then  silvered;  candle  a  pasteboard  roll  covered  with  Red  Crepe 
Paper  No.  81,  flame  an  electric  bulb  or  Orange  Crepe  Paper  No.  65. 
Christmas  Border  No.  X3  for  frieze  on  wall. 

Poinsettia  Side  Light:  Crepe  poinsettia  with  wired  petals  (see  page 
13).  Stem  of  No.  7  Wire  looped  to  fasten  to  light  socket. 

(A  hall  lantern  is  described  on  page  7.)

The  Living1  Room 


The  hall  sounds  first  its  note  of  welcome  and  good  cheer,  but  the  living 
room,  in  which  all  assemble  for  happy  conversation  and  reunion,  should 
continue  the  Christmas  harmony.  In  the  room  below  many  decorative 
features  are  shown.  Single  units  may  be  selected  or  the  entire  room  easily 
reproduced.

Decorated  Booths 


Crepe  Paper 

is  the  ideal  decorative  material  for  bazaar 
booths,  because  easily  applied,  made  in  both  bright 
colors  and  pastel  shades  and  printed  in  designs  appropri- 
ate to  every  season  and  holiday. 

Crepe  Paper  Moss,  which  is  simply  long,  very  narrow  strips  of 
crepe  paper  cut  across  the  grain,  makes  an  attractive  overhead  deco- 
ration when  used  thrown  over  natural  branches.     It  may  be  pur- 
chased ready  to  use  or  a  fold  of  crepe  paper  may  be  shredded.

Christmas  Costumes 


Crepe  paper  is  as  beautiful  as  cloth 
for  making  carnival,  pageant  or  dance 
costumes  and  much  more  economical. 

Almost  all  costumes  are  made  on  a 
muslin  slip  or  pajama  suit.  Silkateen 
is  the  best  thread  to  use,  when  sewing 
by  hand,  but  many  costumes  may  be 
almost  entirely  pasted  or  glued  to- 
gether. 

Poinsettia  Slip-on:  One  straight 
piece  of  White  Crepe  Paper  No.  11 
long  enough  to  reach  to  waist  back 
and  front.  Cut  hole  for  head.  Paste 
around  neck  red  fringe  and  a  narrow 
double  ruffle  of  Red  Crepe  Paper 
No.  81.  Applique  design  cut  from 
Poinsettia  Crepe  No.  208.  Add  a 
gathered  skirt  of  white  crepe,  with  a 
long  overskirt  of  red 
fringe  and  a  shorter 
one  of  poinsettia  crepe,  edged  with  a  double 
ruffle  of  red.  Wide  sash  of  red. 

Hat:  One  piece  of  white  crepe  25 
inches  long,  10  inches  wide.  Stitch 
1%  inches  from  edge  of  hat  a  very 
full  ruffle  of  Poinsettia  Crepe  No.  208, 
6  inches  wide,  edged  with  double 
ruffle  of  red.  Paste  ends  together 
and  gather  at  top.  Turn  up  and  flute 
white  edge  of  hat. 

Santa  Glaus:  Slip-on  "chap"  style 
trousers  of  Red  Crepe  No.  81,  gath- 
ered very  full  at  waist  and  glued  to 
cardboard  waistband.  Gather  full 
at  each  knee  and  glue  to  crepe  paper 
band.  Coat  of  red  crepe  paper  fitted 
to  white  pajama  coat.  Rands  of  white 
cotton  spotted  with  black  crepe 
lightly  stitched  on  for  "ermine."  Hat 
of  red  crepe  banded  with  "ermine."

Sending  Gifts 


To  Cut  Paper  Correct  Size:  Place  box  or  object  on  sheet  of  paper.  Cut 
length,  leaving  enough  paper  at  ends  to  fold  to  top  edge.  Fold  one  side  of 
paper  over  top  to  the  middle  of  box ;  fold  the  other  side  of  paper  over  top 
to  a  little  beyond  the  middle  of  box  and  cut  there. 

This  method  makes  the  neatest  package,  but,  when  gifts  are  to  be  sent 
by  mail  or  express,  it  is  safer  to  cut  the  paper  longer  at  the  ends  and  lap 
the  end  portions  over  the  top,  to  be  held  firmly  down  by  the  string. 

Cable  twine  will  be  found  of  sufficient  strength  for  packages  to  go  by 
mail.  On  large  packages  to  be  expressed,  linen  finished  twine  should  be 
used. 

Gifts  to  be  mailed  or  expressed  should  have  for  an  outer  covering  a 
strong  manila  paper.  It  is  much  more  attractive,  however,  to  first  wrap 
them  in  Fine  White  Paper  No.  22,  crepe  or  tissue  paper,  bind  with  silk 
or  gummed  ribbons  and  decorate  with  seals,  tags  and  labels,  as  one  would 
a  package  to  be  handed  a  friend  or  put  on  a  tree.  Then,  if  the  gift  is  not 
in  a  box,  it  is  safer  to  fold  around  it  a  piece  of  cardboard  before  adding  the 
outer  wrapping. 

Christmas  seals  and  decorations  may  be  placed  on  the  back  of  packages 
sent  through  the  mail.  The  post-office  rules,  however,  forbid  their  use  on 
the  front. 

Christmas  gifts  may  be  most  inexpensively  sent  by  Parcel  Post.  For- 
merly the  rule  has  been  that  they  must  be  only  tied,  not  sealed,  but  the  new 
law  says  a  Parcel  Post  package  may  now  be  mailed  sealed  if  on  a  special 
label  appears  the  name  and  address  of  sender,  word  as  to  the  nature  of  the 
contents,  and  the  statement,  "This  parcel  may  be  opened  for  postal  inspec- 
tion if  necessary." 

The  price  of  Parcel  Post  mailing  is  according  to  weight  and  distance 
traveled,  the  zone  system  of  miles  being  used. 

The  limit  of  weight  which  will  be  carried  is  70  pounds  for  delivery 
within  the  first,  second  and  third  zones  (300  miles)  and  50  pounds  for  all 
other  zones  in  the  United  States. 

Parcel  Post  packages  may  not  exceed  84  inches  in  length  and  girth  com- 
bined. The  greatest  distance  in  a  straight  line  between  the  ends  is  taken 
for  the  length ;  the  distance  around  the  parcel  at  its  thickest  point  is  called 
its  girth. 

A  Parcel  Post  package  may  be  insured  for  its  actual  value  by  the  pay- 
ment of  a  fee  of  3  cents  up  to  $5.00  value,  10  cents  up  to  $50.00,  etc. 

It  may  also  be  sent  Special  Delivery  by  the  payment  of  an  additional 
10  cents.

Sealing  Wax  Gifts 

Your  friend  who  "has  everything"  will  appreciate 
the  novelty  of  a  sealing  wax  gift  and  admire  its  beauty. 
In  fact,  you  may  thus  please  all  your  friends  at  a  small 
outlay  of  time  and  money.  The  only  materials  needed 
to  make  many  and  varied  gifts  are  an  alcohol  lamp,  a 
few  steel  knitting  needles,  a  steel  knife,  a  wax  spatula, 
a  wax  moulder  and  a  few  sticks  of  Dennison's  Sealing 
Wax. 

Bead  necklaces  are  very  popular.  Vases  are  a  close 
second.  Decorated  boxes,  candlesticks,  telephone  and 
memo  pads,  all  are  serviceable  as  well  as  pretty. 
Flowers,  figures  and  conventional  designs  may  be  re- 
produced for  decoration.  Beads  are  made  by  twirling 
wax  on  a  steel  needle  over  the  lamp  flame.  Other 
objects  are  covered  gradually  with  wax  and  twirled 
over  the  flame.  For  flowers  and  designs  the  spatula  is 
used.

Crepe  Paper 

General  Directions  for  Working 

Before  starting  to  decorate  have 
all  working  materials  handy, — 
scissors,  hammer,  tacks,  pins,  wire, 
glue  and  paste. 

Work  for  effect.  Finish  the  gen- 
eral decoration.  Then,  if  time 
permits,  give  fine  touches. 

If  the  decorations  are  ever  to  come 
down,  drive  the  tacks  in  only  half- 
way. They  will  hold  perfectly  well. 
Fluting  Edge  Wire  jg  better  than  gtrmg  for 

attaching  decorations  and  for  holding  things  together.    Two  twists  hold  when 
a  string  slips  in  tying. 

Crepe  paper  almost  always  is  stretched  a  little  before  using.  This  should 
be  done  by  two  people,  one  at  either  end  of  the  paper.  First,  double  the  end 
over  once  or  twice  or,  better  still,  roll  it  over  a  ruler  or  stick  so  that  it  will  not 
tear,  and  then  pull  steadily  until  it 
is  sufficiently  stretched. 

In  covering  a  background  in  plain 
effect,  fold  over  the  top  edge 
of  the  paper  once  or  twice;  then 
tack,  lapping  the  second  piece 
Y^  inch  and  so  on.  When  the  top 
is  finished,  stretch  crepe  down 
smoothly  and  tack  at  the  bottom. 
Hang  the  dull  side  out,  for  Denni- 
son  Crepe  will  hug  tightly  that 
way,  as  it  tends  to  roll  in.  If  the 
height  to  be  covered  necessitates 
tight  stretching,  tack  through  little 
pasteboard  squares  or  pasteboard 
strips  so  that  tacks  will  not  pull 
through  the  paper. 


Cutting  Fringe 

(The  back  of  the  cardboard  folder  in  which  Dennison 

Crepe  is  sold  is  printed  with  lines  and  inch  measurements  for  easy  cutting.) 
Ruffled  or  fluted  edges  can  be  made  evenly  and  easily  without  removing 
the  paper  entirely  from  the  packet.     Pull  all  edges  at  once  back  and  forth 
between  the  thumbs  and  forefingers,  thus  producing  a  rippled  effect. 

Ruffles  of  crepe  may  be  easily  gathered  on  the  sewing  machine.      Always 
use  silkateen  when  stitching  crepe  paper  by  hand. 

Fringe :  Cut  a  fold  of  crepe  paper 
across  the  grain  of  the  crepe  into 
length  required  for  the  fringe. 
Fold  one  end  up  to  within  1  inch 
of  the  other  end.  Fold  and  refold 
until  you  can  cut  handily,  leaving 
the  1-inch  border.  Shake  out  fringe. 
Crushed  Crepe:  Stretch  crepe. 
Lay  on  smooth  surface.  Take  up 
a  small  section  with  tips  of  fingers 
of  both  hands,  crushing  it  tightly. 
Crushing  Crepe  Repeat  over  whole  piece  of  crepe.

Noisemakers  and  Party 
Gaps

in  fact,  almost  necessary  for  a  proper 
welcoming  of  the  New  Year.  These

makers  but,  with  painted  faces  and 
crepe  paper  costumes,  may  serve  also

Appropriate  Observances 

Twelfth  Night,  the  evening  of  January  6 
(twelve  days  from  Christmas),  has  long  been 
observed  by  English  people,  and  so  unusual 
and  entertaining  are  its  traditional  features 
that  it  is  more  and  more  becoming  an  occa- 
sion in  this  country  for  home  parties,  dances 
and  large  club  and  public  affairs.  Originally 
a  holy  day,  observed  by  the  devout  as  "The 
Feast  of  the  Kings,"  to  commemorate  the 
visit  of  the  Magi  to  the  manger  of  Christ, 
it  gradually  changed  to  a  popular  holiday. 
The  following  customs  are,  from  long  usage, 
peculiar  to  its  observance. 
There  should  be  a  King  and  a  Queen,  chosen  by  cutting  a  cake  (the  man 
finding  a  bean  in  his  slice  is  elected  King;  the  lady  finding  a  pea  is  his  Queen). 
Paper  crowns,  a  scepter  and,  if  possible,  full  regalia,  are  given  them.  They  are 
seated  on  a  throne  and  the  fun  begins.  At  a  small  or  home  observance,  old-time 
games  may  be  played,  as  blindman's  buff,  charades,  or  stunts  with  forfeits. 
There  should  be  a  feast,  at  which  all  have  a  chance  to  guess  the  choicest 
dish,  the  winner  only  being  served  with  it.  Dancing  and  the  singing  of 
carols  follow,  and,  finally,  the  burning  of  all 
Christmas  greens. 

Robin  Hood,  Friar  Tuck,  Father  Christmas,  M  w* 

Happy  Jack,  St.  George  and  the  Turkish  Knight 
are  all  old  English  characters  often  impersonated, 
and  the  larger  observance  sometimes  takes  the 
form  of  a  carnival,  cabaret  or  costume  party 
with  these  and  others  as  entertainers.  /I 

Entertaining  on  this  night  may  be  appropri- 
ately of  a  carnival  nature,  and  brightly  colored 
decorations  and  favors  are  much  in  vogue.  We 
suggest  a  few. 

Trumpet  Banner:  This  can  be  used  as  a  dance 
favor,  also  by  the  announcer  of  events,  imperson- 
ating a  herald,  or,  the  banner  without  the  trum- 
pet, as  a  wall  or  balcony  decoration.  For  this 
favor  cover  a  tin  trumpet  with  Purple  Crepe 
Paper  No.  23.  Banner  is  of  Dark  Amber  Crepe 
No.  63  and  Purple  No.  23.  Yellow  Crepe  Rope 
No.  Y3  and  pompons  of  the  same  colors  com- 
plete the  favor.

Carnival  Decorations  and  Favors 

Carnival  Costume:  Make  a  bloused  waist  and  very  full 
double  skirt  of  Black  Crepe  Paper  No.  12.  Decorate 
with  large  disks  of  Red  No.  81,  Green  No.  43,  Blue  No.  54 
and  Yellow  No.  61  Crepe  Papers,  pasted  on  double. 
Suspend  mat  stock  disks,  covered  with  the  same  bright 
crepes,  on  vari-colored  ribbons  from  one  shoulder.  The 
hat  is  a  cone  shape  of  Black  Mat  Stock  No.  12.  Red  and 
yellow  disks  dangle  from  the  top  on  ribbons.  A  black 
elastic  snaps  under  the  chin  and  keeps  the  hat  on.  The 
neck  and  wrist  ruffles  are  of  red,  yellow  and  blue  crepe 
paper  stitched  to  a  yellow  ribbon. 

Confetti  Bell:  Of  White  Crepe  Paper  No.  11  dotted 
with  bright  colored  confetti.  Pendent  white  silk  ribbons 
dotted  with  confetti  and  ending  in  bright  colored  crepe 
bags  of  confetti.  Start  to  make  same  as  bell  described 
on  page  13.  For  large  bell,  paper  will  not  be  wide  enough 

to  double,  so  make  single  and   turn  up  edge. 

Inside  this  turned-up  edge  insert   White  Wire 

No.  10,  stretching  crepe  into  shape  as  you  insert. 

Then  proceed  as  for  smaller  bell. 

Man  Catcher:  Make  a  hoop  15  inches  in 
diameter  of  No.  15  Wire,  fastening  it  with  spool 
wire  to  a  round  stick  23  inches  long.  Wind  both 
hoop  and  stick  with  White  Crepe  Paper  No.  11. 
Cover  surface  of  hoop  smoothly  with  white  tissue 
paper,  pasting  over  wire  edges.  Apply  paste 
about  2  }/2  inches  deep  completely  around  edges 
of  hoop  and  stick  to  this  (thickly)  bright  colors 
of  confetti.  Tie  a  bow  of  Red  Crepe  No.  81  on 
handle.  This  favor  is  used  to  drop  over  the  head 
of  a  dancer. 

Jester  Wand:  Wind  a  round  stick  20  inches 
long  alternately  with  Black  No.  12  and  White 
No.  11  Crepe  Paper.  To  this  attach  by  spool 
wire  a  jester's  head  in  profile  painted  on  white 
cardboard.  Form  cap  of  Black  and  White  Stripe 
Crepe  No.  BW1  with  tip  of  white  pompon.  For 
collar  cut  petals  7  inches  long  of  alternate  black 
and  white  crepe  paper.  Paste  Wire  No.  1 
through  center  of  each  petal,  attach  pompon  and 
bend  petal  in  shape.

Entertaining  Games 


A  Christmas  Box  Party 

Write  your  invitations  inside  of  a  cardboard  box  form.  Place  boxes  instead 
of  chairs  for  your  guests.  The  first  game  may  be  a  box  hunt.  Each  hidden  box 
should  be  suitably  wrapped,  tied  and  tagged,  with  Dennison's  Christmas 
wrappings,  gummed  ribbons,  tags,  cards  and  seals,  and  each  box  should  con- 
tain an  appropriate  gift  for  each  guest,  that  which  you  know  he  most  desires. 
For  instance,  one  might  contain  a  toy  automobile,  another  a  tiny  house,  another 
a  check  for  $1,000,000.  After  the  hunt,  guessing  games  may  be  played  with 
all  seated  on  boxes.  The  supper  may  be  served  in  paper  boxes,  picnic  fashion, 
each  couple  sharing  a  box.  Bon  Bon  Boxes  No.  X43,  filled  with  candy,  may  be 
used  as  souvenirs. 

The  Bell  Game 

Decorate  the  cards  on  which  these  questions  are  written  with  Seal  No.  205. 
Leave  space  to  write  in  the  answers. 

1.  What  bell  is  used  in  a  blacksmith's  shop?     Bellows. 

2.  What  bell  often  describes  the  attitude  of  one  nation  to    another?

3.  About  what  bell  did  Poe  write  a  poem?     Annabel  Lee. 

4.  What  is  a  well-known  bell  in  Ireland?      Belfast. 

5.  What    bell  was  connected  with    telephone  inventions?     Alexander 
Graham  Bell. 

6.  What  was  the  name  of  an  ancient  Babylonian  bell?     Belshazzar. 

7.  What  bell  is  sold  by  the  druggist?     Belladonna. 

8.  What  bell  is  sold  by  stationers?     Label. 

9.  What  bell  had  a  lot  to  do  with  the  discovery  of  America?     Isabel. 
10.     What  bell  is  a  famous  playwright?     Belasco. 

Trimming  the  Tree 

(A  Game  for  Small  Children) 

From  sheets  of  Green  Mat  Stock  No.  17  cut  large  Christmas  trees.  Give 
one  of  these  to  each  child,  together  with  an  old  magazine,  scissors  and  tube  of 
paste.  Let  each  cut  from  the  magazine  pictures,  suitable  decorations  and 
gifts  to  paste  on  the  tree.  Three  of  the  children  may  be  chosen  as  the  three 
wise  men  to  select  the  best  trimmed  tree.  A  small  crepe  paper  tree,  which 
has  for  its  base  a  paper  serving  cup  filled  with  candy,  would  make  a  good 
prize. 

Choosing  Partners 

Paste  a  wreath  cut  from  Crepe  Paper  No.  X970  on  Green  Mat  Stock  No.  17, 
cut  to  shape.  Suspend  wreath  in  doorway  and  through  it  hang  Bed  Crepe 
Paper  Streamers  No.  1,  Rl,  with  ends  reaching  nearly  to  the  floor.  To  one  end 
of  each  streamer  attach  two  Holly  Seals  No.  213,  back  to  back,  and  to  the 
other  end  two  Poinsettia  Seals  No.  204.  Ask  the  boys  to  stand  on  one  side  of 
the  doorway,  the  girls  on  the  other,  and  each  to  select  a  streamer,  those  with 

Page  28 


for  the  Holidays 


the  holly  seals  to  be  held  by  the  girls,  those  with  the  poinsettia  seals  by  the 
boys.  Then  cut  the  wreath,  letting  the  streamers  fall.  When  they  are  un- 
tangled, each  young  man  will  find  his  partner  at  the  other  end  of  the  streamer 
he  holds. 

A  Hoop  Race 

Choose  sides,  calling  one  group  "The  Holly  Reds,"  the  other,  "The  Ever 
Greens."  Form  two  lines.  Give  to  the  leader  of  each  line  a  hoop,  one  wound 
with  red  crepe  paper,  the  other  with  green.  Ask  each  leader  to  hold  the  hoop 
over  his  head.  At  the  words "  Go,"  each  must  drop  the  hoop  over  his  shoulders, 
down  his  body,  to  the  floor,  and  step  out  of  it.  The  next  person  in  line  must 
pick  it  up,  drop  it  over  his  shoulders  down  to  the  floor,  and  so  on.  The  line 
finishing  first,  of  course,  wins  the  game.  This  game  should  be  played  in  a 
hall,  but  if  in  a  home  be  sure  to  have  plenty  of  "elbow  room." 

Memories 

Hand  to  each  guest  five  circular  pieces  of  varying  sizes,  cut  from  white 
paper  and  fastened  together  at  one  corner  by  a  bow  of  ribbon,  these  pieces 
to  be  arranged  according  to  size,  the  smallest  on  top.  On  the  first  circle  the 
guest  is  asked  to  write  the  first  sentence  given  below  after  the  hostess  has 
read  it  once.  On  the  second  circle  the  guest  is  asked  to  write  the  first  two 
sentences,  which  the  hostess  will  read  twice.  For  the  third  circle,  the  hostess 
will  read  the  first  three  sentences  three  times,  and  so  on.  The  guest  cannot 
change  any  sentence  after  writing  it,  nor  look  at  the  first  circles.  The  winner 
is  the  one  who  can  most  successfully  reproduce  all. 

1.  One  ogling  ostrich  ousting  owls. 

2.  Two  tall  tapers  toasting  tidbits. 

3.  Three  tinsel  triangles  topping  trees. 

4.  Four  fat  faces  full  of  fun. 

5.  Five  fitful  fires  flashing  flames. 

For  a  "Watch  Night"  Party 

Give  each  guest  a  paper  with  the  following  questions  to  be  answered  by  the 
name  of  some  part  of  a  watch.  Draw  or  cut  out  the  dial  of  a  watch  for  an 
attractive  heading  over  the  title  "Watch  Contest." 

1.  What  season  of  the  year  do  you  note  on  a  watch?     Spring. 

2.  What  parts  of  the  human  body?     Hands,  face,  back.
